You say you want another? OK, sure!

A charge -1 C is stuck at x=0. A charge +4 C is stuck at x=2 m. You need to place a positive charge Q somewhere along the x-axis so that it doesn't move. No glue, staples, nails etc. are available.

It should be placed at:

a) x = 2/3 m
b) x = -1 m
c) x = -2 m
d) x = 5 m
e) x = -1/2 m
